Dunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, breitere Randaufhellung. Noch etwas zurückhaltend, dunkle Beerenfrucht, zart nach Kirschen und Nougat. Saftig, ein Hauch von Feigen, aber auch roten Beeren, feine, reife Tannine, frisch strukturi- ert, weißer Pfeffer im Nachhall. 

Wine Advocate 
Unwinding in the glass with aromas of sweet blackberries and raspberries mingled with hints of rose petal and spices, the 2020 Mondot is medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a pure, seamless core of vibrant fruit and a long, succulent finish. Derived from Merlot growing on recently acquired vineyards on Saint-Émilion's limestone plateau, some 40% of the blend is matured in tank, with the rest in once-used barriques.

All Merlot from limestone soils, brought up in a mix of once-used barrels and tank, the 2020 Château Troplong Mondot Mondot sports a dense ruby hue as well as a gorgeous bouquet of pure black cherries, smoked tobacco, chalky earth and hints of tobacco. This beauty is medium to full-bodied, has an elegant, seamless mouthfeel, and a great finish.
